Description

Pittacum takes us back to its place of origin: 40 hectares of old Mencía vines, spread across a mosaic of 200 plots on mountain slopes in the heart of Bierzo.

This young red offers pleasant sensations of fresh red fruit and soft spice and seduces with its pleasant juiciness.

James Suckling:
Rich red cherries, currants and blueberries, with some notes of herbs, stones and dark chocolate on the nose. A medium- to full-bodied Mencía with good richness and mid-palate density, yet it stays fresh and fluid. Firm tannins on the finish. Drink now to 2026.

The Wine Advocate:
The namesake 2020 Pittacum is toasty and ripe, with 14.5% alcohol, reflecting a warm year and eight months in used barrels. It has a 2000s-style profile, with more generous ripeness and oak. It finishes dry with abundant tannins that will need more time in bottle and/or heartier dishes.
